Re: What is Our Lowest Serial Number for a Carrera?
In Response To: What is Our Lowest Serial Number for a Carrera? ()

I have a 537x. The serial number text and font is the "big style" font seen on early 2444 pre-Carrera's and other variants from the 1950s.

Interestingly the case back is round, not a "poly" back - I think we had a post earlier where Mark "Carrera" Moss confirmed that he had seen a few round backs rather than poly back in the very early serial numbers.
